The ATO has provided a new SMSF member verification system that will provide greater transparency around super rollovers from APRA (Australian Prudential Regulation Authority)- regulated super funds into SMSFs.

These super funds and their administrators can now confirm that an individual requesting a rollover to a SMSF is a member of that SMSF.
The ATO states that the new system should:

assist rollovers to be completed in a timely manner by reducing the need to request additional documents, such as the trust deed

enable APRA-regulated super funds to have more confidence that a rollover to an SMSF is genuine
